To Be Happy, In Bradley Beach,
LET GO
BY H. F. Applegate
If you want to be healthy morally, mentally and physically, just let go. Let go of the little annoyances of everyday life, the irritations and the petty vexations that cross your life daily. Don’t take them up, nurse them, pet them, and brood over them - they are not worthwhile. Let them go!
That little hurt you got from your friend – perhaps it wasn’t even intended, perhaps it was-but never mind, let it go. Refuse to think about it. Let go of that feeling of hatred you have for another, the jealousy, the envy, the malice - let go of all such thoughts. Sweep them out of your mind an you will be surprised what a cleansing and rejunevating effect it will have upon you, both physically and mentally. Let them go - you house them at a deadly risk.
But the biggest troubles, the bitter disappointments, the deep wrongs and the heartbreaking sorrows, tragedies of life, what about them? Why, just let them go too! Drop them - softly maybe - surely. Put away all regrets and bitterness and let sorrow only be a softening influence. Yes, let them go, too, and make the most of the future!
